Virtual Design And Research On Fin Shaper

Fin shaper can continuously machining aluminum foil volume material into blind fin which used in automobile air conditioning and heat exchanger, and the shaped fins were cut according to needed wave crest number, entire producing process is automatic production.In the paper, the virtual design technology characteristic and dominance were analyzed, in view of existing machine equipment which design method is insufficiency, the virtual design technology was leaded into fin shaper design and development field. The fin shaper structure and designed scheme were elaborated. The key parts of fin shaper and itself were designed,improved and elected, the part entity modeling technology and the parts store establishment method based on feature and parameter were discussed using Pro/E, and the component and part entity model were built. The assembly models which support top-down design procedure were elaborated. The assembly sequence,the path plan and the dynamic assemble simulation technology were introduced in detail, the assembly simulation system and fin shaper entire machine numeral model were established. The fin cut-out device virtual prototyping models were established, and mechanism kinematics was analyzed based on ADAMS, and the design rationality was verified. The fin ejecting material and cut-out device control system were compiled based on PLC. Reducing the design cost and enhancing the efficiency, guaranteeing the fin processing continuity and reliability compared with the traditional design method, it is the model significance to the correlation machinery equipment design development.
